@LouJ85 😁😁😁 congratulations!!!!!!

FridaKFangirl · 07/08/2020 17:16

Wow! Fantastic News @LouJ85 :) No squinting needed there! Did you have any symptoms?

LouJ85 · 07/08/2020 17:27

@FridaKFangirl I came home from work today feeling a little nauseous and exhausted, thought I had a bug! I slept all afternoon and woke up and just had an instinct so I tested. We only dtd once, the day of my flashing smiley!

Thanks all - I'm in shock. It's been 14 years since I've been pregnant! Not sure if I should tell my DD yet as if anything goes wrong I don't want her to have to go through the heartache too... x

FridaKFangirl · 07/08/2020 17:37

Wow @LouJ85 Does that mean its not even FMU? That's a really strong line then! :)

Yep - not FMU, it was done about an hour and half ago! I had just woken up though and was bursting for a wee though , if that makes any difference? DP has just left for night shift on cloud 9, bless him. I'm left sitting here in shock trying to process it all!
claireb707 · 07/08/2020 18:00

Wow congrats @LouJ85 that's a fab line!

Hayleywoody82 · 07/08/2020 18:25

@LouJ85 congratulations. Amazing xx

LouJ85 · 07/08/2020 18:27

Is it normal to have what feels similar to period pains? Like a tugging / stretching feeling down below?

Keepeas · 07/08/2020 18:30

Congratulations @LouJ85! 🤞 for more BFPs this month, it gives me hope anytime anyone on here gets one 😊

Keepeas · 07/08/2020 18:32

that's exactly how I remember it feeling early on with my little one, light cramps and a sense of stuff stretching and a bit twangy

And to think it was only once in the fertile window

Giving us hope my lovely xxx

LouJ85 · 07/08/2020 20:10

Thank you all for your lovely messages. I have my fingers crossed for you all too.

I'm starting to freak myself out reading stuff about chemical pregnancies now. I wish DP wasn't on a night shift, my mind is just racing! I'm just praying and hoping so much the little one sticks Thanks

Parsleyrose · 08/08/2020 09:29

Morning ladies! It's testing day for me today. I know it's really stupid but I'm so nervous. I stopped doing POAS about 4 months ago because it was getting me so miserable every time I got a BFN. I vowed I wouldn't even order any more unless I needed to.... so I only have one left - it's a CB digital so there'll be no ambiguity.

I know it's really silly and doing a test doesn't make any difference to whether I'm pregnant or not, but I just can't bear the thought of another BFN Sad.

M4v3r1ck · 08/08/2020 09:37

@LouJ85 😍😍😍😍😍😍 woooop woooop!!! Fabulous news!!!! Please keep us updated on your progress!

@SnowWhite1985 I'm currently CD23! I've not been doing any OPKs etc, so don't know exact DPO! Wanted to see how the first few months go!

AF due this week based on usual schedule. Hoping the biatch doesn't appear, but my symptoms are there... annoyingly, they're always very similar to pregnancy symptoms! 😕

Happy Saturday Golden Ovaries! 😘 Here's to some more BFPs! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 And good luck to the DTD-ers! 😈😈😈

M4v3r1ck · 08/08/2020 09:39

@Hayleywoody82 I forgot to add your comment really made me laugh! 😂 We both work from home and have been sneaking in a couple of workday sessions around meetings too! 🙊😂😈

Rumi1 · 08/08/2020 09:55

Happy Saturday all

I'm extremely tired and didn't sleep well at all - the heat in my house is ridiculous

Good luck to all those testing this weekend

I was going to ... but decided not to

Had a Reiki and Reading session on Thursday ... and she picked up on a very much wanted pregnancy

Told me not to want it too much ... (whatever that means )

I'm CD 26 now ( af due tomorrow or Monday ) - if AF doesn't appear then I'll test

Can't remember what cycle we're on , but been tracking using OPK since May / June

@Parsleyrose please don't over think . Take a deep breath and be positive for the next month it this cycle isn't the one ...I know it's hard , so sending you a hug

FridaKFangirl · 08/08/2020 10:12

Hi @Parsleyrose, it’s meant to be testing day for me too... this morning there is the tiniest something there when I wipe though (TMI). Could be implantation or could be AF, so I’ve got my ‘sample’ of FMU but I’m giving it a couple more hours... I really don’t want to waste a test only for AF to turn up half hour later...

Happyalwayswinning · 08/08/2020 10:30

Good morning all, good luck to everyone soon to test

@claireb707 good luck to you and your hubby. 🤞🏾

I am currently 9dpo . I think I have a ear infection.Going to pop in the pharmacy later been having sore throat and ear ache since 7dpo, it's mild in the day time and then it gets worse in the evening/night time.

Sending positive energy to all that's going through a hard time 🙏🏽😁
In all this TTC malarkey, don't forget to let your hair down and spoil yourselves. ❤️💛💚💙💜🤍

Hayleywoody82 · 08/08/2020 10:31

@M4v3r1ck 🤭🤭 its defiantly a perk to working from home xx
